In the Andy Weir adaptations The Martian and Project Hail Mary, novelist Weir and screenwriter Drew Goddard invent sci-fi problems that feel reasonably grounded within the world of the movie. Then, we watch movie stars like Matt Damon and Ryan Gosling attempt to solve those problems. It’s been a durable formula so far, boosted in Project Hail Mary by liberal use of full-IMAX space sequences.
